Need some help to make your Power Point fantastic? Follow these guidelines for a great Power Point.
Use only pictures and graphics that are related to your topic. EX: Don't use smiley faces when doing a power point about a person.
Only use FACTS. If you can not prove it, then its probably an opinion and your power point is about facts.
Custom Animation: Don't have too much animation. Yes, its cool when you make it do amazing tricks, but your power point is not about using as much as you can. It's about presenting information in a way that's easy to understand and appealing to the audience. Since I am your audience, you want it to appeal to me.
Remember my power point with the paragraphs that were horrible to read? Don't do that! The goal of your power point is to share information with very little effort on the part of the audience. The audience shouldn't have to read too much and you should not read only what's on the screen. Put the basic information on the screen, then add to each slide with what you say about it.
